A rise in plasma levels of the amino acid homocysteine (HCY) is a possible risk factor in cardiovascular disease. The mechanisms proposed to explain how HCY can increase the risk of vascular disease include its direct effect on the vascular endothelium and its role in increasing the risk of thrombosis. The present work has been designed to determine HCY levels in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) residents in the Canary Islands and to establish whether hyperhomocysteinemia can be considered as an risk factor.
